Right!

I'm putting this thread up to annoy people

Up to 212 now, with the number one to be revealed on Thursday night.

No doubt Vaughan Williams' The Lark Ascending will be top of the list...not my favorite piece, but the music is making for a nice background ambiance to distract me from the unwarranted attacks on me.

Surprise Surprise Lark Ascending is not the winner and it’s Nigel Kennedy playing it not Katherine.

Aye OC.

Not my favorite composer - his music is full of self pity.

I would have voted for Beethoven Piano Concerto number 5 - The Emperor.

It was in fourth place.

“All by myself”

For BT

All by Myself" is a song by American artist Eric Carmen released in 1975. The verse is based on the second movement (Adagio sostenuto) of Sergei Rachmaninoff's Piano Concerto No. 2 in C minor, Opus 18, famously used to underscore the 1945 British film Brief Encounter.
